2001 XJ brakes question

[mtulett1]

my front brakes feel like they are for lack of a better term , catching. i plan on take the tires off to see if i need new pads and rotors but can anyone give me some insight on this. Could it be from the cold weather? it just started doing this. thanks in advance.

Yeah, gonna need a little more to work with. However, if "locking up" is more suitable, it could be indicative of a hose problem.

It could be the fluid is bad and that's ez to change, hose issues, bad pistons too.

thanks guys but i think i found the culprit. My rad had a hole in it and i think some of the coolant got on my brake pads. Anyway i wshed my truck and sprayed the rotors and calipers really good and it seems to be good to go.... thanks again i know you guys are always reliable!
